Set up a new computer, and wrote a cover song.
Well, felt it best to update this blog again, this time, with another YouTube video in anticipation of "An Alien World" being released on Future 80s this Friday. While this track will not be included on the EP, that does not mean that it won't be available on Bandcamp later on.
I also have finished my own remix for an upcoming remix album based on the album "Roboblokk" by Blokkmonsta. More details will be made available once I know the remix album is ready. …since I wrote an entry in this blog. While I apologize for not writing here, the good news is that I wasn't completely dead.
First of all, I realize most of this was a few days ago, as opposed to being actual news, but since I chose to save my blog for my review of the Emu Proteus/3 XR at the time... Anyway, first off, a new short from the creator of Lizard Cops is out. This particular animation, which, this time around, has all of the music created by me, is a Sonic The Hedgehog fan video making fun of how dangerous some games are in the context of real life. I also have gotten an interview about my '80s-style material for the recently launched Synthwave Sunday program on Radio Pure Gently. The interview will be part of the second episode, airing at 9 AM EST this coming Sunday. Click here for the replay of the first episode.
In light of some of what will be discussed in the upcoming interview, I also hope to get more on top of my upcoming EP, "An Alien World". Granted, Synthwave Sunday will play one track of mine that was previously not publicized and will be in the album, but I still need to compose two more suitable tracks for the album to be complete. Thankfully, already I'm developing ideas for one of them, but still. Thank you all for reading, and be sure to tune in to Radio Pure Gently on Sunday at 9 AM EST. Here is the URL for the program, in case I am unable to make another blog entry before it airs. http://mixlr.com/radio-pure-gently A month or two ago, I acquired a new hardware synthesizer, and earlier today, I FINALLY finished a video of it. Therefore, I have all the material necessary for my critique of the Emu Proteus/3 XR.
First serious attempt at one, that is. The original is by fellow synthwaver Starforce.
Also might host another stream of working on my music in the next few days, though undecided.
Well, first of all, belated Happy New Year to everyone.
I've been spending the past few days making more Kontakt instruments out of the Fairlight Series III samples. Expect the updated YouTube video to be up in a few days. Also going to be busy with a few pieces for others, most notably an offer to remix one track from an album called Roboblokk. Never got serious with remixes until now, so this will prove interesting, at least. For those who haven't checked SoundCloud, lately, I also have a new track:
The track also reached roughly 100 listens in 24 hours, which will likely increase further thanks to it playing a few minutes ago on the internet radio station Project Friday. Thank you everyone for the support!
This will unofficially be part of a new EP, which will likely be sold exclusively by Future 80s, a label that has also been courteous enough to assist me with artwork and advertising. Thank you everyone for reading! Just paid to distribute Cyborg on iTunes and AmazonMP3. In addition, I have finally decided to allow streaming of Cyborg and, at last, Change of Clothes on Spotify. Expect streaming to become available for the albums by Christmas.
In addition, the other day I finally wrote another synthwave piece. Not sharing, yet, though, as it's intended for a new compilation by Wave Runner Records called "Running All Night Volume 1". A rather small update, in retrospect, but at least it proves I'm not dead. |
